“The Price Of Beauty” Helped Jessica Simpson Find Own Inner Beauty

Jessica Simpson credits her new VH1 reality show, The Price of Beauty, with helping her find her own inner beauty.

Joined by celebrity hair maven Ken Paves, the 29-year-old singer/actress traveled the world to find identify what constitutes beauty. Jessica, who has often been scrutinized and ridiculed publicly for her weight and seemingly limited-IQ, said the show has helped turn her life around.

“It changed me completely because I haven’t always had an inner confidence,” the former “Newlywed” said at the Television Critics Association Conference in Pasadena Friday.

“The journey really was finding something beautiful inside me, and [knowing that] I own it,” she explained.

“I’ve always had a calling to be a positive light and role model for girls and women in the world. This show is my light. You’ll see my life changed,” Jess said. “You can’t let anyone else [define] beauty for you. I carry myself differently [now]. And any man I find, they are going to be darn lucky.”

The Price of Beauty premieres on VH1 March 15.
